Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am currently taking twynsta 80/5. I just migrated here in U.S. and twynsta is out of stock. My doctor backhome advised me to take norvasc 5mg and losartan 100 mg together to be taken in the morning. Is that safe for me?Is telmisartan 80mg equivalent to losartan 100mg? thank you
Telmisartan 80 mg is the same drug group as Losartan 100 mg called angiotensin receptor blockers. They do the same job, so it is safe to take it as long as there is no telmisartan in stock.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
